Snails in filter | |
zeketaz Hobbyist Posts: 114 Kudos: 78 Votes: 1 Registered: 18-May-2009 | I opened my filter today in search for a lost fish, didn't find it and saw tons of little snails. How on earth do I get rid of them? I noticed that when I turned the filter back on a bunch flew out of the filter then became snacks to my fish. |

So whenever you clean your filter rinse them out into a bucket that has clear tank water in it. Then you can just dump them into the tank for the fish as a snack. Your fishies will love you more for it. TTFN --->Ta-Ta-For-Now Kelly ;o} |
